Apache county is no paradise, judg-
ing from events as chronicled ia the
county newspapers, but is, rather, tho
cradle Of contention and strife, and a
murder or two occasionally Is expected
as matter Of course The contest for
the possession Of the records Of the
Treasurer's Office, which has been
pending for many months, is not yet
settled. The ST. Johus Herald states
that Dioniclo Baca, The ousted Treas
ursr, refuses to give UP the records to
st. George Creagie, the rightfal iu-
cumbeEt, and county warrants remain
unpaid because they must be redeemed
seriatim, an impossibility without ac-
cess To the records. In the meantime
the interest continues To accumulate
on these warrants. Tho same paper
records the rough experience Of 4
raneher named Blassingame, who, AL
ter short absence from his ranch, re-
turned and found the house in pos
session Of eight Or ten Msxicans, who,
without q word Of warning, opened
fire upon him. Blassiugame beat d
basty retreat and although pursued
for some miles escaped unscathed.
The reason for tins hostile proceeding
Is said to bea mystery. Sueh happen

The Finest Key Ever Made.

On the occasion Of the opening Of the
Jaffray Hospital, at Birmingham, by
the Prince of Wales, his Royal High
ness was presented with q key, which
is believed to be the finest ever made in
England. It is in the style of the
Queen Anne period, and is full Of mar
velous designs, the leading figure being
that of Charity extending one hand to
the needy, while the other holds the
scroll of benefactions to the hospital.
The Princes arms, and those Of the
borough of Birmingham, together with
MIR. Jafray's crest, are duly exhibited;
but what is, perhaps, most remarkable,
Is that 80 very wonderful and unique IA
instrument should really be capable OF
fulfilling the ordinary and common
place function of turning a lock. and
in fact, Of unlocking the hospital door.
A reduced copy of the key in gold, AZ
ranged as brooch. was presented to
Mw. JafTay.-N r Post.

Eyes, too late. One of those blasted
mosquitoes had stuck his beak clean

Several rose and stole away to some

to their emotions in tears.
Down in Pennsylvania" said the
quiet little man in his quiet, unassum-

considerable size. He was placed on
an immense raised platform about
three hundred feet high, and had been
trained to use his beak to drill the Oil

One man groaned audibly.
